Poems,stories and pictures by Irina Mouravleva.
a story
Two gypsies young and old,
Gold bracelets, wavy hair.
Evening, cold and warm,
Wind playing with the fire.
Tell me, old gypsy, you know everything,
Put pieces of my dreams together.
Old gypsy smiles, and mixing soup
Looks up somewhere far:
My daughter, if you only know.
When I was young like you...
I left my home, parents, brothers,
It wasn't for me I thought, run far away, was working, cut my hair short.
A woman stopped me in busy day, holding kids:
Tell gypsy, will my husband home.
It was rain, and children crying, wet,
They hurried seen me.
I said: he will be home, he will be home,
Wait near that green tree, one week from now.
She hugged me.
Some one else, again, again, new cards, "this gypsy never lying".
And you, my daughter, will get married soon, receive a letter, happy life, children, gift, long road.
I don't need cards, don't worry, I cannot see much since five,
I am imagining the life around.

just a thought
When I was at school
My mother had home small medical office,
Father had medical business, aunt,
And I helped here and there, for free,
People liked me a lot, and they felt better after
I touched them, talked.
Father's German friends asked me go to medical university and work in Germany.
I almost did, thinking go with the business,
May be what my great grand mother did, natural healing.
Then my great grand aunt told me I wasn't strong enough,
She touched my hands, looked in my eyes and said:
You are not strong enough,
Go from here, that not where you belong, see life.
And when you see life beyond and than you are strong.
May be this is life beyond. ..
Smile :)

just a thought
You have done so well,
I am very proud and
I remember, people always say
When you find your Guardian Angel
You have nothing to worry about.
Everything will be good
Smile :)
